Pokémon Power ⇢ Gaze
Once during your turn (before your attack), choose 1 of your opponent’s Benched Pokémon that has a Pokémon Power. That power stops working until the end of this turn. This effect ends if that Pokémon leaves the Bench.
· Baby rule: If this Baby Pokémon is your Active Pokémon and your opponent announces an attack, your opponent flips a coin (before doing anything else). If tails, your opponent’s turn ends.

It has a very soft body. If it starts to roll, it will bounce all over and be impossible to stop.

This would be a fun card to bring back in some form. It probably wouldn’t be nearly as formidable as Hex Maniac · Ancient Origins (AOR) #75 since it would only disable a single pokemon’s ability at a time and only during your own turn, but it could produce some neat plays in snipe decks by giving them a way to disable Bench Barriers or by deactivating Vileplume-based item locks. And it could be countered by simply running more of the pokemon in question, so it probably wouldn’t make any deck outright unplayable.
